Sounds like it may be the index in your Music Library. Try going into Recovery Mode; remove battery, hold power switch to ON, replace battery, release power switch when the Recovery Mode screen appears on the screen. Run Option 1 CleanUP, after it completes run Option 4 Restart. You will get a Rebuilding Library screen when it reboots, that's normal, then it should go back to your startup screen. Good luck and let us know what happened

Detach your player from the PC if it is connected, and turn off the player.
If the player stops responding, you can reset the player. To reset the player, gently
insert a thin object into the Reset hole located below the power switch. if that doesnt work try this:



I decided to open it up to check out the hard drive to see what kind I would need so I could try replacing it. The data plug that attaches to the hard drive itself was partially unplugged. So, I pushed it back in all the way, put it all back together again, and turned it on just to see if something different might happen. (I had it set in my mind that the hard drive failed and I would need a new one, so I didn't expect anything different to happen) And to my surprise, it worked just like new again
when you get it working
try downloading the MP3 player recovery tool from Creative's website (the tool contains the latest firmware update available -- 1.15.03). Plug your ZV+ into your PC, run the program and let it update the firmware. Then format, reload your music and try it.

My creative zen 4gb player,when switched on the screen appears to be white

If you need to reset your device everytime you turn it on, it might be a firmware problem or device problem. You may want to try reloading or upgrading the firmware of your player. However, there are risk when you perform the upgrade. It might not work completely if it is not properly done.

For specific firmware upgrade instructions, please refer to the firmware released posted at http://creative.com/products/mp3 or follow the instructions on the screen.

Hope it helps!

Creative ZEN 4GB

Hi, I had the same problem with my Zen V Plus. I held the volume + button in and connected the Zen to the computer using the USB cable and the Zen came back to life ! Try it - it might just work like it did for me.

My Creative Zen 4GB MP3 Player is just not turning On

I had the exact same issue and this is how i fixed it.
go to the zen website and download the latest drivers.

  1. Turn off your player.
  2. Disconnect your player from your computer.
  3. Press and hold the Play/Pause button. Continue to hold the button while you perform steps 4 and 5. If you accidentally release the button, start the procedure again.
  4. Gently push a straightened paper clip into the Reset hole.
  5. Slide the On/Off switch towards the USB port and hold until the display lights up. The Recovery Mode screen appears with four options: Clean Up, Format All, Reload Firmware, and Reboot.
  6. Select Reload Firmware, followed by Yes.
  7. Connect your player to your computer.
  8. Double-click the downloaded file and follow the instructions on the screen.
